Talking to Endomondo members, we know you all use Endomondo in your own way. Some of you compete with friends, family and coworkers. Some of you use Endomondo as a community for encouragement in your fitness goals, getting love and encouragement from those you are taking that journey with to better health and a better life.

We are excited to announce the launch of our new Facebook timeline app. Integrating our app with Facebook’s more than 845 million active users, we offer our members a way to share their trials, tribulations and triumphs with their friends, family and coworkers.

We’re making it even easier to share your Endomondo workouts on Facebook. With the timeline app, Endomondo is moving to even more social activity, being able to share with your friends and tell your fitness story.

The new timeline app lets you:

Post workouts LIVE to your timeline, News Feed and ticker

The Endomondo app offers real-time updates to Facebook timeline, so your workout data will be updated as you bike, run and more and will let your friends follow your progress while you're working out.

Show the route of your latest workouts

Endomondo will share the maps from your latest workouts so friends and family can match your exercise and take the same route. Of course, sharing your route is up to you. If you do not want to share the routes of your workout, you can go to Settings on Endomondo.com, click on Privacy and set the map to Private.

List recent workouts with statistics

Your Facebook timeline will include an overview of your recent workouts, including distance, duration, speed and calories burned for each of those workouts.

See where you’ve been – monthly and for the year

For you and your friends and family to get an idea of how you’re doing month-to-month or for the year, you can now click on the Endomondo app on your timeline, and get an overview.

Post all your historical workouts to timeline

This is not just for future workouts. You can share all the workouts already tracked with Endomondo on your timeline.

Sync changes on Endomondo with timeline

Your history at Endomondo.com is now synced up with timeline. If you make an edit on Endomondo, it is automatically reflected on your Facebook timeline too.

Okay, we know that all sounds great … but how do you start with Endomondo on Facebook? To get started, log in to Endomondo.com, go to Settings and then Connect. From there, you’ll be able to choose to share future workouts to your Facebook timeline, as well as share past and future workouts.

And for those who want to share with your community on Facebook, but remain a bit more private, you can choose who on Facebook can see your activity when you install the app. And you can always edit the settings from your Application Settings Page on Facebook, and can remove specific activity directly from Timeline or from your personal Activity Log on Facebook.

We look forward to hearing what you think about the real-time updates to Facebook and how you are sharing with your community. Comment here or on our Facebook page, and have a great workout!

Happy Valentine's Day everybody! As you can see on the picture, Endo has fallen in love…with the Valentine’s workouts you shared with us on Facebook.

The one we like the most… ‘Drum roll’… :)

Congrats Ken, you and your wife will be enjoying Endomondo gear for 2 soon.

We cannot resist mentioning a few other great Facebook comments on this topic.

Linda and Vera gave us ideas for a new sport J

Simon definitely gets credit for the funniest one:

Santosh, Matthew and Linda prove that working out together with your love can motivate you to great accomplishments while you’re still having fun

We also really like Angela’s way of keeping her husband close and working out solo at the same time:

Thank you all for sharing your thoughts, and we wish you all a lovely Valentine’s Day!

As 2011 was coming to an end, we thought about the millions of workouts our community had done. It was the time of year to be reflective, so we gave our users the chance to pound their chest and share their proudest sports performance of 2011 with us.

We got many terrific responses and here are a few handpicked achievements proving that our users never fail to inspire us:

Jill, Kate and Slenderella discovered and brought out their inner athlete:

Adrenaline rushed Jukka-Pekka and Richard took it above and beyond, having fun in the nature with extreme hiking and mountain-biking:

Jerry rocked 2011, becoming a big loser only when it comes to his body weight:

Who needs a car when you can pump your pedals like Lukáš? :)

Finally, our very special kudos go to Andrew, who used event as a tool to raise funds:

Got inspired too? Already planning some cool workouts for this year? We would like to hear about it on our Facebook page!

We have integrated the new Wahoo Blue HR Heart Rate Strap in our latest Endomondo app for iPhone 4S (app vers. 5.4.0) and it is now available in our Store.

Wahoo Blue HR Heart Rate Strap is the world's first Bluetooth 4.0 Smart heart rate strap made for the iPhone 4S (and other Bluetooth 4.0 Smart Ready devices).

It may look indistinguishable from every other HR strap out there, but it takes heart-rate monitoring to completely new level thanks to Bluetooth 4.0 technology. Let’s have a closer look what the benefits of this device are:

- Low energy usage – it runs on simple replaceable coin cell batteries

- Accurate and stable heart rate data - fewer dropouts or HR spikes in the Blue HR

- Easier and faster pairing - you pair the device directly in the app

- No dongle/key/adapter required

- Waterproof and can be submerged in water up to 5ft without issue - ideal for triathletes

The Wahoo Fitness Blue HR heart rate strap delivers accurate real-time heart rate data through the Endomondo Sports Tracker app and uploads your data directly to your profile at endomondo.com while you are tracking. You can also see a heart-rate graph directly in the app as displayed on the picture below.

In December we passed 100.000 Likes on our Facebook page thanks to the support of our many users. To celebrate this we made a challenge where 100 lucky Facebook friends would win a one year subscription to our Athletes Lounge.

You all showed great support of this challenge and 100 winners have now been found. To see if you are one of the lucky people, please go to The 100k Facebook friends challenge.

If you want to stay updated on the latest Endomondo news and have a chance to win Endomondo goodies, then join us at our Facebook page.

Once again thanks for the support!

We challenged our Facebook friends to one-up Christian, a user who last year left us a pretty special Christmas note in the form of this creative workout.

Well, the Facebook community responded and users Marit and Manny rung in the New Year with some pretty ingenious workout of their own.

We think this is pretty amazing. But the real questions is can you do it better?

Share a creative workout here or on our Facebook page if you got the skills!

Every month, we have been asking our Facebook fans a question about how they use Endomondo. This month we thought we would change it up and ask them to tell us why they like to work out, in poem form. The responses we got back were fantastic! Here are some of our favorites:

We really enjoyed Roberto’s submission because it was easy to relate to and had our favorite line from the posts, “I even hear my laces asking me why.”

Suzie’s was the only haiku, and gets bonus points that, but was also really nice.

Iwan chose to play with form in a different way, taking the classic “roses are red” formulae and adding a dash of the absurd.

Speaking of playing with style, we really like Andreas’ poem becau.. Zzzzz...

Martha’s poem was quite moving (pun not intended), and was our favorite “serious” post of the group.



And finally, we will leave you with a response tailored to the season.

You can read all the fun poems on the facebook page.
